Help with a simple string.format function

I would like to personalize this Shadowed Unit frames function to only show decimal percentage 100.0% if the Unit is under 50%. Example Unit is 100% hp then shows at 100%, unit is under 50% then show 38.7%

function(unit, unitOwner)
local maxHealth = UnitHealthMax(unit)
if( maxHealth <= 0 ) then
return "0.0%"
end

return string.format("%.1f%%", (UnitHealth(unit) / maxHealth) * 100)
end

Code:

function(unit, unitOwner)
	local maxHealth = UnitHealthMax(unit)
	if( maxHealth <= 0 ) then
		return "0.0%"
	end

	local healthPerc = UnitHealth(unit) / maxHealth * 100
	if( healthPerc > 50) then
		return format("%.0f%%", healthPerc)
	else
		return format("%.1f%%", healthPerc)
	end
end
